501 — About
Defending that starts with the ball.
Born in Ljubljana to a Bosnian family, he grew up as a footballer in Austria and learnt his trade in the Juventus academy. At Sassuolo he became a regular starter and won Serie B, and in 2026 he played at the World Cup.
A tall, left-footed centre-back who builds play from the back — now wearing number 5 at Elland Road.
„My role models are Emir Spahić and Edin Džeko.“
